Day 268 – Spin on S’mores

For today’s intention, I decided to make and share an awesome fall dessert. When the kids were younger, instead of making messy S’mores, I liked to make an interesting spin on S’mores recipe. I mean, the original S’more in my opinion is meant to be eaten while you’re camping and sitting around the fire right?? Well, I haven’t been camping since I was in my early 20’s. So, if you’re indoors….what do you do? I found a way that my family could still enjoy this favorite pastime. Especially when their friends were over, it was so fast and easy to whip up a batch and let them go at it. No mess, no fuss.

Here’s what I would do: I began by melting my chocolate chips and a little milk (to make it a smoother consistency) on the stove. Meanwhile, while that was heating up I would crush up a bunch of graham crackers. Next I would stick a toothpick in each huge marshmallow. Holding the toothpick, I would roll the marshmallows one by one in the chocolate then immediately roll them in the graham crackers.

That’s it!! I haven’t met anyone yet that didn’t love this awesome dessert. And this is just another fun and yummy way to welcome in the season. I was just talking to one of my friends today actually and told her how happy I was that fall was here. The leaves are turning, the nights are chilly and the air is crisp and clean.  And of course….let the fall cooking and baking begin!! #HGAL

Before and after...Voila!!! Easy Breezy
